Chapter 26

Who could help but love such a good child? Even Wu Yanxing, who had always been cold toward the outside world, could not help but soften her gaze.

Zhou Peiqin did not ask anything; she simply held him tightly, doing everything in her power to offer him the warmth she could provide.

Looking up at A-Le beside him, it was as expected: A-Le’s face was a mixture of rage and terror. His body lay limp on the seat, struggling in vain to move, though everything was futile.

Su Zhimo thoroughly disliked the way Lan Mengdie was assessing her; it made her feel like a head of cabbage being inspected by a shopper, and one that the shopper wasn't particularly satisfied with at that.

Sima Feiying knelt on one knee, his face ashen, a large bloodstain covering his chest. His expression was one of unbearable agony.

According to her testimony, our Longshuo police collaborated with the Lingnan police to wipe out the criminal syndicate in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, the leader of the gang remains at large, and we have yet to capture him, though we have taken his family into custody.

With these questions in mind, he entered his room, closed the door, and sent a video request to Huang Qiyun.

Among the five, even Lei Zhanye, the strongest, possessed a force of only fifteen thousand jin—a massive gap of five thousand jin compared to Lin Buzheng’s twenty thousand jin of raw power.

The older of the two beast-cultivators, a youth and an elder, nodded slightly toward Xue Shengshui, applied an aerial talisman to his legs, and took the lead, charging toward the direction of the Jade Water Residence.

Chong’er only noticed this, and the profound sense of loss instantly transformed into a heart-searing disdain.

"Two hundred thousand? Can you handle that, my Lord?" Sun Fu took a clever approach, addressing Jiang De directly as "Lord," implying that regardless of whether they accepted it or not, he would use the title anyway.

"Alright, I have already stated the target for this mission, and you are all aware of its general weaknesses, so there is no need for me to say more. For the bounty!" said Bai Sen.

Wu Hao and Cao Jianren also sensed that something was wrong. These men’s eyes were blood-red, as if a fire were raging within them. They acted like beasts or demons, seemingly having lost their sanity, fearing neither life nor death.

The five captains, each leading ninety-nine men, set out and began their first campaign.

The crowd saw that it was the old general Huang Gai speaking; it went without saying that he intended to avenge his beloved son.

"My master, Mansur, look, that is the Essin fleet. It seems Srivijaya cannot even control the west anymore," Helili said, pointing at the patrol fleet.

Setting aside Lei Heng, one looked at Liangshan, where Chao Gai and the others had arrived at Jinshatan. This was Chao Gai’s first time at Liangshan, and observing the terrain, he couldn't help but sigh that it was indeed a place easy to defend and difficult to attack.

You Jingyan was actually very afraid that the people he chose would commit heinous crimes in the future, and that the consequences of such acts would fall upon his own shoulders.

"Lord Liu, there is no need for thanks; let us just consider it fate between us," said You Jingyan.

Wei Qing, having heard the Marquis’s words, retreated helplessly to the side. Seeing the Marquis about to leave, the Ghost King revealed a smile on his face.

The next morning, Ming Xue arrived at the job fair early, just as she had the first day. But no sooner had Ming Xue sat down than Lin Na arrived, accompanied by someone dressed like a college student.

Do not blame him for being ruthless; were Gou Rou in his position, he would have made the same choice, of this there was no doubt.

Lady Shari only wanted to tease Kyno, never expecting to be teased back, which stirred a strange feeling in her heart. How many years had it been since someone called her that?

This had become a bit of gossip for the high-ranking officials of the Great Han to discuss over tea. Initially, Li Jinchen had indeed been worried about whether those two would scheme together, but now their performance only made those who still held some affection for the former dynasty shake their heads and sigh.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh inwardly. I had anticipated this long ago, and I had even specifically searched Qin Yulin’s person and checked the places he had visited. I can tell you clearly, Qin Ziyuan, Qin Yulin is not an "Advent."

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Lu Li began to deeply suspect and reflect on himself. He wondered if he should throw his "own" soul into a black hole without reincarnation to accept punishment.

On the other side, the exquisite wooden house by the lake had been reduced to ruins, and the lush green grass had been scorched with a dozen furrows by fire. A man in Milanese armor, wielding a sword wreathed in flames, stood in a standoff against Edith.

Since Yang Jian had the courage to leave Chang’an, he had naturally made full preparations. There were already standby troops in the imperial palace, and these were absolutely not to be moved.

Furthermore, if one gets the Vampire, one certainly wouldn't consider Ryze; there is no point in leaving it to the opponent if they haven't practiced it.

"There is an acquaintance; I cannot let him discover me." I was extremely nervous, not daring to raise my voice for fear that Zhang Kai would hear it, turn around, and notice me.

Superpower riots continued to erupt in the city, growing increasingly severe. Each occurrence caused immense damage and required large numbers of troops and police to quell the situation.

"What do you think was said?" Luo Chenyang’s reaction was indifferent, appearing quite calm compared to her anxiety and worry.

"Sister!" Jingliu exclaimed upon seeing Setsuna in the cage. The sisters truly shared a deep bond.

The spiritual power hidden within the blood marrow is the essence of the soul. Wu Yixun is young and vigorous, in the prime of her youth; if a portion of her blood and marrow were transferred to Wu Langhuan, even if it could not cure the root cause, it could prolong his life for a time. It was indeed a shortcut.

Seeing her long hair hanging naturally to her waist, her eyes were veiled in a layer of mist due to the medicinal effect, looking hazy and moving.
